TextingOnly · Proof of Value Pilot

Run the program.
Measure the value.

Q: What happens during the 30-day Proof of Value pilot?

TextingOnly scopes the use case, configures the platform, builds OTTO workflows, launches real inbound or outbound campaigns, tracks performance, and delivers a final review with next-step recommendations.

Q: Do I need an existing contact list?

An existing list is recommended for outbound testing. Inbound pilots can begin without a list by adding tracked click-to-text, QR code, or SmartLink entry points.

Q: What does OTTO automate during the pilot?

OTTO can respond to opt-ins, collect structured information, run Interactive Text Response menus, route inquiries, trigger lead alerts, and manage campaign replies.

Q: Is a long-term contract required?

No long-term contract is required to scope the pilot. The pilot plan and commercial terms are reviewed before launch.

Q: What do I receive at the end of the pilot?

You receive a performance review covering campaign activity, responses, workflow completions, qualified inquiries, attribution, and recommended next steps.

A structured 30-day pilot using your real use case, real contacts, and real campaign entry points. TextingOnly configures the platform, builds the OTTO workflows, launches the program, and gives your team measurable results before a broader deployment decision.

What this is

More than a demo.
Less risk than a rollout.

The Proof of Value pilot is a controlled operating program. It allows your team to see how TextingOnly performs in your environment before expanding across more contacts, campaigns, locations, or business units. The pilot is scoped around the result you need to prove, not a generic product tour.

What is included

Everything required to test
a real operating program.

The exact pilot scope depends on your use case. These are the core elements used to create a measurable deployment.

Configuration

Platform setup

Campaign numbers, 10DLC preparation, permissions, contact fields, routing rules, and reporting structure configured for the pilot.

Automation

OTTO workflows

Interactive Text Response menus, qualification questions, reply handling, lead alerts, and follow-up logic built around your use case.

Entry points

Tracked contact paths

QR codes, SmartLinks, website click-to-text, or outbound messaging connected to the same attributed workflow.

Campaigns

Live audience activity

Inbound capture, outbound re-engagement, or both, using real contacts and approved messaging rather than test records.

Support

Hands-on optimization

TextingOnly supports setup, launch, monitoring, workflow adjustments, and questions throughout the pilot period.

Deliverable

Performance review

A final review of campaign activity, responses, workflow completions, qualified inquiries, attribution, and recommended next steps.

How the pilot runs

Four stages from scope
to operating evidence.

Define the proof

Identify the business objective, target audience, contact source, entry points, workflow, handoff process, and the measurements that will determine whether the pilot succeeded.

Build the operating flow

Configure the account, prepare registration, create OTTO workflows, connect lead alerts, organize contact fields, and establish campaign-source attribution.

Launch and optimize

Run the approved campaign activity, monitor responses and workflow behavior, and make practical adjustments during the pilot when the data supports a change.

Review and decide

Evaluate the evidence with your team. The final review identifies what worked, what should change, and whether a broader deployment is justified.

Who it is for

Best for teams that need
proof before expansion.
